Join us on Wednesday, October 22, for our annual Walk & Roll to School Day!
Buses will drop off students at 7:45 a.m. by the north end of the track, and students will walk the track until 8:00 a.m.
Walking each day helps boost energy, improve focus, and strengthen both body and mind — a great way to start the school day!

🌟 Staff Spotlights of the Week 🌟
This week, we’re celebrating two amazing members of our Westville team who help make our school such a special place to learn and grow! 💛🐝🖤
✨ High School/Middle School Spotlight: Chloe Abshier
Chloe teaches Pre-AP and AP English at the high school and is in her 8th year at Westville. A 2013 Westville graduate herself, she earned her degree in English Education from Northeastern State University. Her favorite part of the job is prompting students to think analytically and critically about the world around them. Outside of school, she enjoys spending time with her six-month-old son, reading, hiking, running, and watching documentaries. Fun fact—Chloe once won the chicken-chasing competition at Dolly’s Stampede in Branson, Missouri! 🐔
📚 Elementary Spotlight: Emily Beach
Emily is in her 2nd year as our Elementary Secretary. She's the little league PK/KG Cheer Coach! She’s married to her best friend, and together they have two kids. When they’re not at home, you can usually find them at the baseball fields cheering on their boys. Her best career advice is one she lives by every day: “Always be kind and smile—you never know what someone else is going through, and it might be the only kind interaction they have that day.”
We’re so thankful for Chloe and Emily and all the heart, energy, and positivity they bring to our Yellowjacket Family! 💛🐝
Thanks to Mr. B's in Stilwell for donating the boxes!
Get ready to blast off as we explore the wonders of space! 🚀
Travel through space to visit the International Space Station, check out our students’ awesome space-themed artwork, and even take a VR spacewalk around the station.
It’s going to be an out-of-this-world evening of fun and discovery—don’t miss it! 🌠
You Can’t Hide Our Jacket Pride! 💛🖤
Show your spirit and wear camo to support our Yellowjackets!
Kickoff at 7:00 p.m. — Let’s go, Jackets!
Tomorrow, Wednesday, October 8, is School Day Retakes!
School Day Retake Instructions
• Middle School and High School: Students will be called to the library by grade. Participation is voluntary, so only those who come when grade is called will get retakes. Please communicate with your student if you wish for them to take retakes or if they missed the photo day in August.
• Elementary Students: Please notify your student’s teacher if you wish to take retakes or if they missed photo day in August, so they can send them over during their class’s scheduled time.
We need at least 50 subscribers before we can livestream — so help us hit that goal!
This will be our official YouTube channel, where you can catch special sports livestreams and other school events.
